Chapter 4: Enough is Enough.

Part 1

Tyler's POV

"Oh uh, hey Clare." Shit, shit, shit! This is so not my day. There was a look of pure hatred on her face - something Eli said she wasn't capable of, he was so wrong - and it was directed right at me. Oh no she wasn't going to yell at me at me was she? Dumb question Tyler, probably. I had to say something and quick. "Before you say or do anything please don't punch me I've already been in the principles office once today and I don't really feel like going back."

Her eyes turned to a sad depressing hue of blue from her usually bright and cheery color. "So it's true then…" she spoke in a whisper.

"What? NO! Of course not you just, you just don't understand Clare." Really Tyler? That's what you say? As if she's going to believe you now.

"Then tell me. Make me understand." I could tell she was desperate, she still thought it was all true about Eli and me. That in itself made me sick; he was my cousin! But Clare didn't know that.

What could I tell her? What could I say to make her understand without telling her?

"It's just it's complicated okay? Just go ask Eli." With that we parted ways, maybe she'd understand now.

~The Next Day~

Eli didn't let on last night that he had told Clare anything, but that's Eli for you.

Walking down a long hall on my way to my locker I went to turn the corner but saw Clare and Eli arguing. Steeping behind the wall out of their view I listened to what they were saying.

"Its not important Clare it doesn't matter. You don't need to worry about it." Eli was speaking calmly.

"Well if it doesn't matter then why don't you tell me?"

"It isn't anything okay? There's no point in talking about nothing!"

"Just, please Eli tell me then." there was desperation in her voice.

"Tell you what Clare? There is nothing to tell!" I heard his locker slam.

"Your saying it's nothing but then you won't tell me anything else! How the hell am I supposed to believe you when you won't prove it Eli?" He went to say something but she was already walking down the hall past me. I ducked behind a trashcan just to be sure she didn't see me spying. The way she was storming off down the hall, she probably wouldn't have seen me anyways.

Oh well, it never hurts to be safe.

I slowly walked up to Eli testing the waters. Everything seemed fine. I ventured out and asked him what was on my mind. "What was that with Clare all about?"

Without a change in emotion he plainly said, "You."

It all made sense now. Him not telling her anything, Clare not believing him. I was stunned, and really upset. "What do you mean 'you'! Oh my God Eli! You didn't tell her? Why didn't you tell her?" I punched him in the ribs; he let out a short breath when my fist struck bone.

"Because she doesn't need to know, because nothings going on." Was he kidding me? What an ass he was being right now.

"She's your girlfriend damn it!" I went to punch him again but he was ready - expecting it - he caught my wrist with hand and clenched down tight so I wouldn't get away. He was looking down on me with an angry face. In a quiet voice so no one else but him would hear I whispered, "You said you didn't want to lose her because of why I'm here, well if you don't tell her you are going to lose her. You really think this is avoiding the problem? Good job Eli." my words were dripping with sarcasm.

Jerking my hand away I stormed off in the opposite direction that Clare had.

Adam's POV

There was an obvious tension at lunch; between everyone. They all knew something that I didn't and I was going to get to the bottom of it.

Clare was glaring at Tyler, Tyler was glaring at Eli, and Eli was watching his mashed potatoes as he moved them around on his plate.

I had to figure out who was the best person to ask about what was going on. So in my head I made a mental list of each of them.

Eli:

- is probably the cause of it.

- doesn't like talking about his problems

- it'll take forever to get the answer out of him

- when I finally do get it out of him, everything will be fixed

Clare:

- is an open book

- probably the one its affecting the most

- probably doesn't know the whole story if it's involving Eli.

- won't say what she really thinks so she won't hurt anyone's feelings

- she a girl; so she'll cry

Tyler:

- I don't know much about her

- Clare's glaring at her so she must be majorly involved

- she a girl too, and I don't know if she's a 'crier'

- were not that close yet so she might not open up with me

I picked Tyler, taking my chances that hopefully she would tell me the truth. God, I hope she doesn't cry. I knew I'd have to ask her later when we were alone, away from both Eli and Clare. The end of lunch bell rang and we all got up - Eli, Tyler, and Clare all left quickly in different directions. I'd try and talk to Tyler after school.

Sooo what'd yea think? It'd be nice to get some more reviews to see how you all think i'm doing and oh before i forget answer my two question up in the a/n at the top of the page in the reviews i reeeeeally wanna know what you think! :P
